Probably?

Perhaps because they behave like public relations

And, it's strange to me, that US readers read, view and listen to the MSM without thinking: "they are probably lying"

I do not trust them, Sam I am. I do not trust them with a feed. They are liars I don't need. I do not trust them on a screen. What they say is mostly mean.

Exactly why most of us have no use for them

Feels like every press release should come with a disclaimer: ‘Likelihood of truth may vary.’

The media enabled them

Probably? Even a half-truth is misleading and thus constitutes itself as a lie.
The media, not speaking up, are enabling the deception, and thus culpable in the duplicity.

Or, bare minimum, preceding their stenography with the adverb 'falsely' when the admin issues knowably untrue claims.

It just … I don’t know … not print lies. Period.

A lot of headlines leaving out associations to Trump, like one recently about the FDA not doing something for public safety. At the least there should be a “Trump’s FDA” since it’s his gutting of the department and replacing people with his yes men that is causing the FDA to not protect us.
